Recently updated with our official Unreal Engine plugin, Cherry Pie Games’ Hollow is a murky, mystical adaptation of Washington Irving’s classic horror tale.

Hollow is available for Windows with optional (and highly recommended) Oculus Rift support.

Are you ready to forge ahead with Unreal and the future of VR? Epic and Leap Motion have joined forces to create an official plugin for Unreal Engine 4. With this introductory Windows plugin, developers can quickly and easily add virtual hands to their games.

Right now, you can access the plugin directly from the Unreal 4.7 source code. Download the source from Unreal’s GitHub repository, build it, and start creating an amazing experience for desktop or VR! The plugin will also be bundled with future Unreal binary tool releases.
